Natrle Biodegradable Gloves

Ordinary nitrile gloves are unrecyclable and take decades to break down. The materials used to create traditional nitrile gloves cause pollution, habitat destruction and microplastics upon disposal. NATRLE products contain an organic additive to dramatically accelerate biodegradation rate. Upon disposal the additive causes bacteria in the environment to excrete an enzyme that dissolves and de-polymerises the NATRLE glove. This process, called mineralization, leaves behind only biogas, water and inert soil.
